Significant Technical Input
Plastic tanks pop all of the time, they're really a poor replacement for the brass tanks. A lot of the replacement radiators we use have metal tanks instead of the E plastic tanks. I've seen all-metal radiators bow and/or blow out from bad caps not releasing pressure, without harming hoses or gaskets.
